Skin crawling sensations with this inhaler. On face and neck. Feels like cobwebs all over face. ## Hello, Vonnie! How are you? These steroids can sometimes cause some very odd side effects. How severe is it and how long do they last? You may also experience a funny taste in your mouth and dizziness. Have you informed your prescribing physician? Are you on any other medications? ## Hi Vernon, Thanks for your reply. Things are not linked only to this inhaler. I think now that these awful symptoms are to do with my other med but the inhaler heightens these symptoms. I'm on anti Tnf drug Humera, which is very toxic. This problem only happens at night, approx 8-12 hrs after using inhaler. Also as bazaar as this sounds, this problem is much worse in one room in the house! There is a centr...

Lutica is the detailed name of the cream, its effect on skin are rarely seen, am looking for a cream for pigmentation on skin. ## This website doesn't manufacture, prescribe, nor sell any medications or products, it is an information only website.

I have been using Flohale inhaler which contains fluticasone proportianate. it is being stopped from the market. I went to doctor, then he has suggested to use budecort but it is not effective. Can you please suggest any alternative for Flohale inhaler. ?

Well, my husband and I tried to get our Fluticasone refilled today and we were told that there is a shortage and the pharmacy said it could be months before they get a supply in. They said they will order it every day. Doesn't give us much consolation. Have asked our doctors to prescribe something else. Well my insurance company will pay some on Nasacort and my husband's company will only pay half which makes it too expensive for him to purchase. What the heck is going on with these drugs companies? Also really like the fact that we are kept in the loop on this one. Didn't know there was a shortage until it was time to refill this month. They have known about the shortage since April when Par stopped making Fluticasone. ## We live in Aloha, OR. Last weekend my husband and I ...

I have about 8 of the sulfameth/trimeth that were left over. I've had a horrible sinus problem for years and my Dr wont give me antibiotics, only gives me Fluticasone. Looked up my nostril once that's it. Fluticasone is useless. Very thick mucus, smells bad. Green, yellow, even kinda gray. Maybe I need a specialist I don't know but I will try anything to get rid of this. I have to blow my nose so hard I'm afraid I'm gonna have a stroke Lol. Seriously though, I can't handle this anymore. ## I think it might be time for you to see an Ear, Nose, & Throat specialist to try and get to the root of the problem. While discolored mucous does not always mean an infection is present, contrary to popular belief as documented by the NIH, sometimes it means your body is fi...

Trying to find out if the Prasco Generic of Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterold Xinafoate Dry Powder Inhaler (Name Brand is Advair), is gluten and corn free? My insurance won't pay for Advair. Viatris who bought out Mylan says they do not test for gluten in manufacturing process and they can't speak for outside ingredients so did not recommend using Viatris or Milan if you have celiac. ## From what I can see, the only inactive ingredient listed for this particular generic is "LACTOSE, UNSPECIFIED FORM". This is for Fluticasone Propionate And Salmeterol Diskus powder from Prasco Laboratories (NDC Codes 66993-584-97, 66993-585-97, 66993-586-97). Can you confirm that this is the brand you have? ## I don’t have it yet and do not know if my pharmacy can order it. I was ...
